Feeling right at home

Started on the Hooker Valley Track at about 11.30 am.

There was this elderly Caucasian couple who was behind us but they started to overtake us not long along the track. This was because the both of us were making such frequent (and long) stops along the way to take photos. *grin*

In addition, I also stopped quite often to just breathe in the fresh (albeit cold) air and admire the beauty of mother nature all around us - the towering snow-capped mountains, the gleaming blue glaciers and contrasting black cliff faces, the evergreens contrasting with their snowy jackets, and the utter peace of not seeing any other human beings in the vicinity once we got started on the track.
